4.5 magnitude earthquake in California at 10:33pm west coast time(6:33am Irish time) and it was felt in San Francisco and Oakland areas. It's also two days before the 30th anniversary of the Loma Prieta earthquake which for people who lived through the one in 1989 might be a bit eerie.

I am in region affected was nasty enough but no tsunami ( there was a wave that came through but it was small). Minor structural damage (sink holes, cracks, piping, septic tanks ) etc but a reminder that the area is not equipped to handle or prepare for a tsunami all mobile alerts failed

The 2.10pm is eastern time , 7:10pm UTC. It lasted less than 1 minute. There were 10+ aftershocks last evening one 6.1. One only today of note hopefully that’s the end of it.

Fathom · 30-01-2020 10:08pm

Rock-and-roll. If these are preshocks, the next may be an 8.

Theory suggests that as the north & south poles lose the substantial weight of global warming, melting ice on top of their plates, they will rise and shift into other plates. Plates on plates, and many earthquakes about the world.

There have been 100s of earthquakes in the Granada area in the last week, but only 3 of over 4.0. My first experience of them, and a little nervous. There seems to be a regular flow of small tremors throughout the day and night.
Last Saturday, Tuesday night and last night there were 4.0+ earthquakes. :eek:

Mini-shocks to release pressure? Or pre-shocks of a coming big one?

I live on the Pacific coast. Not that far above sea level. Such warnings make me pause.

They seem to have been taking about it since the 1994 north ridge earthquake and as you say, having watched several documentaries, it’s not a case of if, it’s when. And there’s been many notable ones since then and thousands of earthquakes that barely register. And what’s different is these two recent ones where in LA not near it.

There's 100s a day. I have an earthquake app on my phone. Just interested in the subject ever since the Pembrokeshire earthquake in the 80s. I was only a child but it woke me that morning. In the south. The app is called volcanos and earthquakes and you can set it to see only the big ones or all of them.. There's also a link within it that tells of activity is low moderate or high. The earth is always grumbling.
